You understand that paying ransom for kidnapped people encourages more kidnapping correct?

If you inderstand this simplest of common sense, human nature and reality, then why is it when it comes to enabling irresponsibility with our no fault welfre system and social programs, you become braindead?

What person in their right mind does not know that forcing(or redistributing ) money from one person to give to another person choosing to live irresponsibly, is no different then paying off ransom.

If you pay off a person for refusing to get a job, you are encouraging more of the same from others!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you take money from the responsible hard working person to give to the dead beat, the responsible person will finally give up and join the ranks of the free loaders.

Now i realize that fools on the Left hate listening to rational people telling the truth of how many trailer trash dead beats we have living off the system. These Socialists who want people dependent on Government, will say that most of these people who use our welfare system are good hard working people who just fell on hard times. LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Yes some of them are hard working people falling on hard times and the Gop will always help truly needy people through no fault of lazyness or irrresponsibility.

The facts are theses.... my wife worked in social services and estimated that at least 75% of those living on welfare were ABLE BODIED PEOPLE who were refusing jobs and not looking for work! They knew they could live a life as good on welfare as they could by working for a living.

This is what socialosm does. It destroys a society, It destroys work ethics,  it pits one american against the next.

The reasons these progressives deny the simple facts is because their iedology loves big government control of the people. I know it is amazing any human being would want more of the corruption we see in Government, but alas these fools do! They want bigger more intrusive Government!

They actually think Government is better at handling our own money than we are, to the tune of 19 TRILLION in debt.

Progressives say very little about this insane debt and only proves what total fools they truly are.

I totally agree with you. The people that are doing it just to be lazy need to get off their butts and get a job. I have a question for you though, what do you suppose we do about it? This could just be me, but it seems like you were complaining about it without offering a good solution to the problem. Having people work is what needs to be done, but that isn't a course of action in and of itself if that makes sense.

I have given my answers to getting able bodied people off welfare many times.

I liken it to a parent teaching their children to do their chores, or there will be consequences such as no car, no computer, no cell phones, no allowance, etc. etc.

The same could easily be done for able bodied people on welfare who have no disability or health issues.

First thing I would do to these people asking for our charity, would be to stop the easy food stamps but rather make them stand in a food bank line. In this way they could no longer sell or trade their food stamps for money to buy alcohol, cigarrettes, gambling at the casinos, etc.

Gee, maybe the children would actually get food!

I would also in a very limited time, such as happens with laid off working people who lose their unemployment checks after six months, stop any housing subsidies and make them stay in shelters until they found jobs.

In this bleeding heart no fault culture Democrats have created for the votes, it seems harsh to actually demand something from these people who are asking tax payers to support them.

Able bodied Americans used to be ashamed of taking charity from others and were very thankful for free food in a food bank line, but no longer. Many today are spoiled arrogant people who think they have a right to other's money.

Do you know what would happen if we got tough with the majority of these people? They would not spend one day in a food bank line because they actually have a boyfriend living in the house with them under the radar. Or they have a family to go to who would take them in.

Funny how so many families just allow Government to support their children because the Government lets it happen. Many of these people on welfare could afford their own food because of the boyfriends, etc. but would rather take government checks to fund their vices.

Many of these people would not stay one night in a shelter because they could live with their parents, or friends, or other family members, etc.

The bleeding heart Left understands these things go on, but they want people living off Government because they represent votes. People vote for free stuff and the Democrats have created a large enough low income voting block to get the Obama's and the Hillarys elected no matter how extremist or corrupt they are.

We could save huge amounts of tax dollars with simple rules of forcing people into food bank lines where it would be much cheaper to feed them when cooking mass quantities of food, rather than individual food stamps.

Getting off their butts in the morning, and standing in a food bank line would be an incentive to finding a job! As it stands now, they are living well off tax payers and have no incentive to stop.

I believe the welfare roles would instantly drop sharply with these simple requirements. It would be easy to make happen but it never will as long as Democrats use these people as a tool for elections.

As long as people keep electing Democrats, it will never stop and our nation will go bankrupt.

But that is their job.

It's how they make a living.

Making a living is what a job is.

Therefore they have jobs.

Mooching is a skill.

As nauseating as it is.....

Mooching is no more a job than being a bank robber. It's stealing money from others without working for that money.
